Stanton tried to make nice with the fans that have booed him.

Yankees fans can be notoriously difficult to please, and Stanton found that out the hard way quickly, posting a slash line of just .230/.313/.425 through April. That’s certainly not the type of production expected out of a player who is set to make roughly $300 million over the next 11 years. But Stanton has turned it around in May, slashing .297/.369/.608. He also has 11 home runs to his name this season, tied for 12th in the American League and two behind Aaron Judge for the team lead. He’s still struggling at home, but a strong last few weeks has given him some leeway to have some fun on Fallon’s show Friday.
